About Me

Thatcher McClure Headshot

Who I am

Hi, I'm Thatcher, a creator at heart who finds his fulfillment and escape from overconsumption in the act of building for myself and others. I think creation has many forms, whether it's a solution to a problem, providing a new experience that leads to a fresh perspective, or even an impactful thought (pick your poison), each can be equally valuable.
I'm pretty big on creation if you couldn't tell.

Some of My Favorite Things

Myles Teller drumming on movie cover of whiplash released in 2014

Movie

Whiplash

What happens when that line between ambition and obsession is crossed? The question is answered through two incredible performanced, paired with an unforgettable jazz soundtrack.

Optimus Prime opening the all-spark on the movie cover of transformers the movie released in 1986 20th anniversary special edition

Movie Series

Transformers

Always loved the transformers as a kid and still do. It's huge robots that can transform into cars fighting each other. What more can I say?

Po on the Kung Fu panda movie cover kicking

Movie Trilogy

Kung Fu Panda

A perfect trilogy that follows Po's complete journey of growth. I especially love three antagonists, each offering a unique challenge for Po to overcome: Physical, Mental/Emotional, and Spiritual

Mr. Fox from Fantastic Mr. Fox with spiral eyes

Movie Character

Mr. Fox

Mr. Fox perfectly captures the struggle of trying to live up to an impossible standard. The weight of needing to be perceived as perfect was something I deeply related to when I watched this.

dark souls 3 video game cover with unkindled knight on front

All-Time Video Game

Dark Souls 3

I could go on for hours about the beauty in the game, it's story, and characters, but I'll keep it short. This game forced me to be a more complete person

Hearthstone Battlegrounds wallpaper with a dwarf and elf looking at the camera

Current Video Game

Hearthstone Battlegrounds

I'm a huge fan of games that require you to plan, think, and create on the fly (any rogue-like game). No game is the same and the game rewards you for not forcing a comp.

Silver Surfer alone in space squating on surfboard

Superhero

Silver Surfer

He has everything and nothing at the same time. Weilding god-like power, that is the source of both his greatest strength and immense sorrow. He's a tragic hero whose greatest burden is the constant choice to choose the greater good of the universe over his own happiness.

Magneto from X-men using his powers

Supervillian

Magneto

A compelling character whose ideology stems from the trauma of surviving the Holocaust. He's willing to do what's necessary to make the world habitable for mutants, driven by a conviction to prevent them from suffering the same fate he did.

Five Jojo's characters together, jonathan, joseph, jotaro, josuke, and giorno

Anime

Jojo's Bizarre Adventure

Huge fan of each part having it's own unique protagonist, while still building on the same world. It doesn't take itself too seriously, delivering an interesting power system with a fun cast of characters

Thorfinn sitting on a rock saying I want to be a stronger person

Manga

Vinland Saga

Vinland Saga is a masterpiece of storytelling that features what I consider the best represention of growth in all of media. Thorfinn's journey from a boy consumed by hatred and revenge to a man who wishes to atone for his past through creating a free world for others is beautiful.

Jordan Ward smiling on his album cover

All-Time Artist

Jordan Ward

Creates upbeat R&B sounds that leaves me feeling happy. Great vocalist as well. Can't wait for his next album.

Jerry Joiner performing on the drums

Current Artist

Girlfriends

The main reason I started learning guitar was because of this guy. He's almost a mystery of sorts but I think he was well ahead of his time being a one man band.

Sushi roll on plate

Food

Sushi

Specifically fried sushi rolls but I like most rolls, just not a wasabi or ginger type of guy.

The Color Green

Color

Green

Mostly because it's the color of nature, but it's such a nice color. Like CMONNN
